1. INTRODUCTION
The AU-1HARC is designed to extract the audio signal from any ARC (Audio
Return Channel) enabled HDTV and convert it to a line-level analogue
stereo signal. This device is perfect for use with HDTV's with no dedicated
audio output allowing the audio to be extracted from the ARC enabled
HDMI connection and sent to a non-HDMI equipped amplier, AVR, or
active speakers. It supports HDMI audio sampling rates up to 192 kHz and
provides an analogue 2-channel stereo output using the integrated DAC
(Digital to Analogue Converter).
